          All purchases of Common Stock made by the Reporting Persons using
funds borrowed from Bear Stearns, if any, were made in margin transactions on
Bear Stearns' usual terms and conditions. All or part of the shares of Common
Stock owned by members of the Reporting Persons may from time to time be pledged
with one or more banking institutions or brokerage firms as collateral for loans
made by such entities to members of the Reporting Persons. Such loans generally
bear interest at a rate based upon the broker's call rate from time to time in
effect. Such indebtedness, if any, may be refinanced with other banks or
broker-dealers.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction

         The purpose of the acquisition of Common Stock of the Issuer by members
of the Group is to profit from the appreciation in the market price of the
Common Stock through the assertion of shareholder rights. The Group expects to
actively assert shareholder rights, in the manner described below, with the
intent to influence the policies of the Company. The members of the Group plan
to engage in discussions with the Company's management and Board of Directors to
try to maximize short and long-term value of the Company's assets which the
Group does not believe is adequately reflected in the current market price of
the Company's Common Stock.

_______________________________________________________________________________

         Members of the Group believe that the Company can increase shareholder
value, within a reasonable period of time, by, among other things: (a)
repurchasing its shares, (b) issuing special dividends, (c) pursuing other
business combinations, such as a merger or acquisition, (d) liquidating various
assets; and/or (e) selling the Company. Members of the Group also believe that
the Company can better evaluate all options to increase shareholder value by
retaining an investment banking firm to advise it.

         In the future the Group may: (a) communicate and discuss its views with
other shareholders; (b) make proposals to the Issuer's Board and management
(including with regard to a possible sale of the Issuer); (c) seek
representation on the Issuer's Board, and/or (d) solicit proxies or written
consents from other shareholders of the Issuer with respect to Board
representation or other proposals for shareholder action.

         Members of the Group may make further purchases of shares of Common
Stock. Members of the Group may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock
held by them, although they have no current intention to do so. Except as noted
in this Schedule 13D, no member of the Group has any plans or proposals which
relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraph (a)
through (j), inclusive, of Item (4) of Schedule 13D. Members of the Group may,
at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and
formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.
